An Expansive Island Sanctuary on Waiheke

Designed by the award-winning architectural firm Glamuzina Architects, this expansive-yet-private home near Matiatia Wharf on Waiheke Island is a dream that blends elegance with practicality.P Style Apr2025 Insights C7 L Step Inside 03

The open-plan living area is encapsulated by floor-to-ceiling glass walls to maximise the extraordinary views, while design details such as the unique copper cladding and resort-style outdoor living spaces exude luxury. The heated pool is multi-functional with a children’s area, swim-lap zone and diving section.

Inside, the home features a hidden lounge-room media centre, a large library/office and an art gallery, as well as a high-end entertainer’s kitchen, anchored by a generously sized Calacatta Quartzite bench. The main home’s three bedrooms are all enhanced by stylish ensuite bathrooms.P Style Apr2025 Insights C7 L Step Inside 01
